A wild fight at a Pennsylvania carnival has sparked a police investigation after an officer was seen on cellphone video appearing to put a teenage girl in a chokehold while a second policeman slams another girl to the ground.
When one girl from the crowd takes a step toward the officer, he swings at her. She responds by punching the officer several times in the head. A second officer comes to the first officer's aid and slams the girl to the ground. "We’ve received several videos and social media posts regarding how the officers conducted themselves. A full and thorough investigation is being conducted. We are committed to uncovering all of the relevant facts and will proceed transparently and impartially," the statement read.
